Probably no one thing has caused
such general revival Of trade at E.
D. Lewis Drug Srore as their giving
away to their customers of so many
free trial bottles Of DIR. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption. Their
trade is simply enormous in this very
valuable article from the fact that it
always cures and never disappoints.
Coughs, Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis,
Group, and all throat and lung diseases
quickly cured. You can test it before
buying by getting trial bottle free,
large size 81. Every bottle warranted.

That depends upon the
Liver, for if the Liver is
inactive the whole sys-
tenn is out of order-the
breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,
energy and hopefulness
gone, the spirits are de-
pressed, a heavy weight
exists after eating, with
general dependency and
the blues. The Liver is
the housekeeper of the
health; and a harmless,
simple remedy that acts
like Nature, does not
constipate afterwards or
require constant taking,
does not interfere with
business or pleasure dur
ing its use, makes Sim
mons Liver Regulator a
medical perfection.
I have tested its virtues personally, and
know that for Dyspepsia, Biliousness anu
Throbbing Headache, 1t is the best medi-
cine the world ever saw. Have tried forty
other remedies before Simmons Liver
Regulator, and none of them gave more
than temporary relief, but the Regulator
not only relieved but cured.

One ofthe things we cannot under
stand is why white people put all color
ed people on a level, and that of the
lowest. That there are some colored
people who are naturally very low, we
will not attempt toIdeny ;but, thatthe very
large majority of us are not so, we do
most emphatically assert. There are
the same grades of responsibility exist
ing among us, as among the whites. but,
whenever colored person commits a
crime, or is suspected, or is accused of
having committed one, the white press
seldom puts itself to the trouble to learn
the proper names of the alleged GRIMM
ais, but stigmatizes the whole race by
referring to them as niger" negroes"
with small (n), "coons", "darkies",
''mokes" or something of the sort. We,
as race, are not, and should not be
held responsible for the individual acts
ofmembers Of the race, any more than
the whites. When white man or wo-
man does wrong, he or she, and their
relatives and associates, are
The only sufferers, but when colored
person is the wrong doer all the colored
people in the town, city Or vicinity are
stigmatized. The bad acts among color
ed people are done by the bad ones and
they alone should be the ones to suffer.

If there isanything more than another
which rifles the average Ssutherner it is
for coiored men to get the best of them
in any way, no matter how insignificant
the advantage may be, and the way he
goes about adjusting the difference is
wonderful and fearful to behold. Dur
ing the recent riot at Oak Ridge, La,
there was one white man killed; and, at
latest advices, twelve eolored men had
been shot and hung, and still they are
not satisfied but are hunting for more.
They dc not need to know that color

A. M. e. Church Notes.

Rev. G. S. Jacobs will exchange pull
pits with Rev. Coston, of Minneapolis,
tomorrow morning, but will be at his
post in his own pulpit in the evening.
The public generally is invited to the
services. Seats are free.
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. D. Hall, Of 787 Carol
avenve, Chicago, returned to their home
last week, after spending few pleasant
days with Rev. and Mrs. G. S. Jacobs.
Their stay in st. Paul was short but ex-
ceedingly pleasant, as their visit was a
source of great satisfaction and comfort
to Mrs. Jacobs.
The pastor of the church is doing
what he can to raise all of the Conference
collections, especially is he anxious to
have each member pay his dollar
money and to have fair Missionary re-
port, and he also hopes to raise all of
the Presiding Elders allowance.
The last quarterly meeting for the
year will be held in the a. NJ. E. church
on the last Sunday in this month, and
it is hoped that it will be meet
of special interest. Revs. Reynolds and
Coston, Of Minneapolis, will take special
post in said meeting, and other minis
tiers are expected to be present.
Mrs. Sadie Williams, the organist Of
the A. NJ. =. church, will leave the city
at 2::4O pm. Monday next for an ex-
tended visit to Canada, Detroit and
Chicago. She will possibly prolong her
stay away from home till the last OF
August or the first Of September. We
wish her pleasant journey and safe
return.

The Globe, of Monday, in it's report of
the discourse, Sunday night, of Rev. S.
G. Smith of the First Methodist church.
upon "Some National Problems, en-
deavors to make it's readers misconstrue
his remarks in reference to the colored
people OF the South. Mr.. Smith is well
known in this community, and is also
we'll known to be warm friend of the
colored people, and to be personally in
terested in their spiritual and temporal
welfare. We called upon Mr.. Smith
and learned from his own lips that a
false construction was placed upon his
remarks. Had concise report, or even
a copious synopsis of the discourse been
reported, a very different opinion in re-
gard to the same would prevail. We
make this statement in justice to Mr..
Smith, who would scorn to do or say any
thing that would increase the already
powerful and inconsistent prejudice ex-
listing against the colored people.
